Ummm. the “wait and see” is to prove who is making the “right” assessment of the situation... The posting is to make the assessments...

I would have thought that was obvious...., apparently not...

[ I’m actually “supremely” confident that my assessments will be the ones that actually happen... excuse the pun there... :-) ... ]

***Review our posts. You’ll see that I made no predictions as to any outcome. That’s what you have been doing. If the SCOTUS takes a pass on the eligibility issue, it won’t be for lack of us trying and it will be for a lack of courage on their part. Even Congressman Billybob wrote something to that effect.

The posting is to make the assessments...
***That’s an argument from silence, the silence of the future. That’s fine that it’s what you THINK is going to happen, but you shouldn’t be putting yourself in the dishonorable position of discouraging conservative constitutionalists who think otherwise and are doing something about it.

I would have thought that was obvious...., apparently not...
***I would have thought arguing from silence and the host of other fallacies you’ve proceeded from would make it obvious that you need to take a critical thinking class.

[ I’m actually “supremely” confident that my assessments will be the ones that actually happen... excuse the pun there... :-) ... ]
***Of course you are. That’s why you argue from them the way you do. But you don’t know the future and that makes your arguments invalid, regardless of whether or not what you say comes true.
